The Scene
Outside, there's a small patio surrounded by a wooden fence decorated with hubcaps and old Western-style boots. A wrecked car is covered with spray paint and stickers. The interior is just as colorful--metal-topped tables, multicolored banners hanging from the ceiling and heavy, blue wooden chairs.

The Food
Some of the most authentic fish tacos you'll find around town, only the fish is marinated and grilled--not deep-fried as it is in Baja. They're topped with shredded cabbage, tomato, cilantro and jalapeño mayonnaise. Other fillings include roasted pork, steak, shredded beef, chicken, veggies and egg. The huge burritos are stuffed with rice, beans, lettuce, sour cream, cilantro, tomato, onions and cheese. Any burrito can be smothered with the house's delicious chili verde for an extra dollar. All menu items come with homemade salsas ranging from mild to spicy. In addition to sodas, there are imported beers for $2.50.
